ABSTRACT:
A first region of a first conductivity type is formed in the surface of a semiconductor body, and second and third regions of a second conductivity type are formed on and under, respectively, of the first region. An electrode region formed on a first insulating film formed on the semiconductor body is connected electrically to the first region. The electrode region is defined as having an elongated first part an upper surface of which is connected to an electrode, and having a second, different part which has a substantially constant width and which width is substantially equal to the thickness of the first portion of the electrode region. A metal silicide film is formed over the upper surface of the first portion of the electrode region. The first, second and third regions can be base, emitter and collector regions, respectively, of a bipolar transistor formed in an island region of an epitaxially grown layer on a semiconductor substrate.
